An 8-foot rope is tied from the top of a pole to a stake in the ground,as shown in the diagram below.

If the rope a 57° angle with the ground, what is the height of the pole, to the nearest tenth of a foot?

A 4.4
B 6.7
C 9.5
D 12.3

Answers

Answer 1
Answer = B
Hope this helps
Answer 2

The height of the pole, to the nearest tenth of a foot is given by: Option B: 6.7 feet

What is angle of elevation?

You look straight parallel to ground. But when you have to watch something high, then you take your sight up by moving your head up. The angle from horizontal to the point where you stopped your head is called angle of elevation.

How to use right triangles to find the height of the specified pole?

Remember that we assume that pole is vertical to the ground. This means, there is 90° formation. The length of the rope can be taken as length of hypotenuse.

Referring to the attached figure below, we get:

Length of the rope = length of AC = |AC| = 8 feetThe angle of elevation of rope from ground: 57°

Using the tangent ratio, we get:

[tex]\sin(x) = \dfrac{\text{Length of perpendicular}}{\text{Length of hypotenuse}} = \dfrac{|AB|}{|AC|}\\\\|AB| = \sin(x) \times |AC|\\\\|AB| = \sin(57^\circ) \times 8 \approx 6.71 \approx 6.7\: \rm feet[/tex]

Thus, the length of the pole is approx 6.7 feet (option B).

Answers

Answer:

1. Their ages are:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8

2. Their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11

3. Their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9

4. Their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We make the assumption that:

S = Steve's age

A = Anne's age

In four years, we are going to have:

S + 4 = (A + 4)2 - 2 = 2A + 8 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 6 .................. (1)

Three years ago, we had:

S - 3 = (A - 3)3

S - 3 = 3A - 9

S = 3A - 9 + 3

S = 3A – 6 …………. (2)

Substitute S from (2) into (1) and solve for A, we have:

3A – 6 + 4 = 2A + 6

3A – 2A = 6 + 6 – 4

A = 8

Substitute A = 8 into (3), we have:

S = (3 * 8) – 6 = 24 – 6

S = 18

Therefore, we have:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8.

2. We make the assumption that:

M = Max's age

B = Bert's age

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (B - 5)2

M - 5 = 2B - 10 .......................... (3)

A year from now, it will be:

(M + 1) + (B + 1) = 30

M + 1 + B + 1 = 30

M + B + 2 = 30

M = 30 – 2 – B

M = 28 – B …………………… (4)

Substitute M from (4) into (3) and solve for B, we have:

28 – B – 5 = 2B – 10

28 – 5 + 10 = 2B + B

33 = 3B

B = 33 / 3

B = 11

If we substitute B = 11 into equation (4), we will have:

M = 28 – 11

M = 17

Therefore, their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11.

3. We make the assumption that:

S = Sury's age

B = Billy's age

Now, we have:

S = B + 10 ................................ (5)

Next year, it will be:

S + 1 = (B + 1)2

S + 1 = 2B + 2 .......................... (6)

Substituting S from equation (5) into equation (6) and solve for B, we will have:

B + 10 + 1 = 2B + 2

10 + 1 – 2 = 2B – B

B = 9

Substituting B = 9 into equation (5), we have:

S = 9 + 10

S = 19

Therefore, their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9.

4. We make the assumption that:

M = The man's age

S = His son's age

Therefore, now, we have:

M = 3S ................................... (7)

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (S - 5)5

M - 5 = 5S - 25 ................ (8)

Substituting M = 3S from (7) into (8) and solve for S, we have:

3S - 5 = 5S – 25

3S – 5S = - 25 + 5

-2S = - 20

S = -20 / -2

S = 10

Substituting S = 10 into equation (7), we have:

M = 3 * 10 = 30

Therefore, their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

If 14 gallon of paint covers 112 of a wall, then how many quarts of paint are needed for the entire wall?

Answers

Answer:

168 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct question;

If 14 gallon of paint covers 1/12 of a wall, then how many quarts of paint are needed for the entire wall?

If 14 gallon of paint covers 112 of a wall, this can be expressed as;

14 gallons = 1/12 of the wall

x gallons = entire wall (1 wall)

Cross multiply

1/12 * x = 14

x/12 = 14

Multiply both sides by 12

x/12 * 12 = 14*12

x = 168 gallons

Hence 168galons of paints are needed for the entire wall

3. Two cars are parked, 150m apart, and on opposite sides of a building. A camera on the top of the building rotates and can view both cars. One car can be viewed at an angle of depression of 370, and the other car can be viewed at an angle of depression of 420. How tall is the building?

Answers

Answer:

The building is 61.5 m tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The image below is a diagram where all the given distances and angles are shown. We have additionally added some variables:

h = height of the building

a, b = internal angles of each triangle

x  = base of each triangle

The angles a and b can be easily found by subtracting the given angles from 90° since they are complementary angles, thus:

a = 90° - 37° = 53°

b = 90° - 42° = 48°

Now we apply the tangent ratio on both triangles separately:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan a=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150-x}{h}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \tan 48^\circ=\frac{x}{h}[/tex]

From the last equation:

[tex]x=h.\tan 48^\circ[/tex]

Substituting into the first equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150-h.\tan 48^\circ}{h}[/tex]

Operating on the right side:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150}{h}-\tan 48^\circ[/tex]

Rearranging:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ+\tan 48^\circ=\frac{150}{h}[/tex]

Solving for h:

[tex]\displaystyle h=\frac{150}{\tan 53^\circ+\tan 48^\circ}[/tex]

Calculating:

h = 61.5 m

The building is 61.5 m tall
